Please follow the documentation of the example here: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v16.0.0/esb_examples_low_power_ptx_prx.html?cp=7_1_4_9_0_1

When you press a button on the PTX the PRX should turn on/off a LED.

can you please share the exact document to follow..so that i can understand that how to check received data if I am using esb_low_power_ptx(); at transmitting side

Please follow the documentation on how to test it.
The log is disabled in the low power ptx as far as I remember.

The way to put the CPU to sleep is to call power_manage(), it will wake up if you have an interrupt, for example a button press or a timer interrupt.

Hi Parag,

Have you tried with the esb_low_power_ptx example ?

The default esb_ptx doesn't have any power optimization implemented and the CPU stays active all the time. This explain why you have only 48 hours battery life time.

The CPU need to be put to sleep when there is no activity.

To achieve 1 year battery life time on a 200mAh CR2032 coin cell battery, the average current consumption should be around 18uA.
